Show us Your Pipe/Tobacco/Accessory Trays!

[Kobold]

I use this wooden bowl to dry my tobacco. I think I got it at an antiques mall in PA years ago.

 

[VDL_Piper]

I have two, one for tobacco prep and one holds my pipes that I'm smoking in my current rotation.

What shape are these wonderfully chubby Castellos?

 

[Zero]

Back in 2018 I went to one of those paint your own ceramics shops with my wife. I painted this relish tray to dry tobacco etc. I hand painted the pipes freehand. Turned out okay...I never use it. I prefer a paper towel.

Nice! The pipe on the far left looks like a Peterson Sherlock Holmes XL22 Mycroft

 

[atwaterville]

Too much clutter. Most of the time I just stick the pipe in a bag or jar and fill it that way. Ritual and hobby aspects take too much away from smoking for me.

What do you do with flakes and cakes?

What do you do with flakes and cakes?

Bust them up in the jar, tin, or bag then load them into the pipe. I've mostly gotten away from them though just because of their tedious nature. I'll often break up a cake and cube cut flakes before jarring just to save time when packing.

#33 Aro, very generous chambers which I like.

I prefer the kitchen table for any preparation.

Thats why I usually break everything down before it goes into jars or mylar. I can do a few oz at a time, dry it all out, and jar it so its ready when I am. Otherwise I could wait hours before my tobacco is crunchy enough to smoke.

Lined half a a cigar box with leather & sanded the edges, perfect.

Geez, what, so you smoke Carter Hall out of cobs too now???

Ewwwww…..

I look at cost of accoutrements and think “my stash is shallow” or “that’s a really cool old pipe” and the money flies elsewhere.

This is my prep kit. The chopping board is 4½" square, the little slip joint is carbon steel and kept hair popping sharp, the dish serves for drying tobacco and doubles as an ashtray, the piece of A4 paper is essential (trifolded then folded in half it forms a square slightly smaller than the chopping board).

 

[Ash Cooper]

All I’ve got is a secretary cabinet I keep all my stuff in and lock up. Kind of fun.

 

[Peter Turbo]

A bamboo valet tray from amazon, for drying/cutting. My grandfathers tray with an ash tray my grandmother made, both older then me by quite a bit.

This is an old picture, but the pipe cleaners are still in the same empty unlabeled tin. I really need an upgrade in pipe cleaners as well.

[kcghost]

I've got a small table that sits by my recliner, and I have modest cutting board that I can get out that is inside the whatever you want to call the piece of furniture on the other side of me.
